Reports Q4 revenue $844M vs. $945M last year. “Garrett Motion (GTX) delivered strong financial performance in 2024, while navigating a challenging industry environment. We expanded adjusted EBITDA margin by 90 basis points year-over-year to 17.2% and generated $358 million in adjusted free cash flow, a testament to our solid operating performance and ability to deliver across industry cycles. We continued to strengthen our leading industry position by expanding our turbo offerings and advancing our differentiated zero-emission technologies,” said Olivier Rabiller, President and CEO of Garrett. “We also made meaningful progress in validating the strength of our zero-emission technologies, securing additional partnerships and new business wins for Garrett’s automotive and industrial applications with major customers around the world. Further, these products are actively being tested by customers with launches planned for as early as 2027. Garrett’s 2024 adjusted free cash flow of $358 million enabled us, once again, to return significant value to our shareholders. In the year, we repurchased $296 million of common shares, equivalent to 13% of our share count at the beginning of the year. We also announced in the fourth quarter a new capital allocation plan which includes the initiation of a $50 million annual dividend, to be declared and paid quarterly, and a new $250 million share repurchase program for 2025. We look forward to continuing to prudently invest in our portfolio of innovative and differentiated products, secure significant customer wins and deliver strong financial performance once again in 2025.”
